Nokia Acquires Trolltech
The Finnish cellphone manufacturer Nokia is looking to acquire the Norwegian software enterprise Trolltech for around 104 million euros.
Oslo, Norway, based Trolltech gained fame thanks to its Open Source library, Qt. The cross-platform Qt development library is available for the Windows, and Mac OS operating systems as well as Unix derivatives and is used in the libraries for the KDE Linux desktop. The Norwegian software developers were recently listed as TROLL on the Oslo stock exchange. Nokia is offering the shareholders 16 Norwegian crowns (NOK) per share, that is about 1.98 euros. Right now, the share is trading in Oslo at 15.60 NOK. According to a press release, Trolltech's management is advising shareholders to accept the offer. The owners of some 66 percent of the shares, including various venture capitalists, have reportedly already agreed to the take-over. 90 percent of all shares are required to secure the deal.
With the acquisition Nokia is looking to extend its cross-platform strategy for mobile devices and desktop applications, and to reinforce its Internet services. According to Nokia, the "talented team" at Trolltech will play "an important role" in achieving this goal. Trolltech's CEOs and founders, Haavard Nord and Eirik Chambe Eng, are delighted: "Trolltech and Nokia share the goal of accelerating the adoption of Trolltech's Qt based technology in the commercial market and in the open source community", says Haavard Nord. Nokia also promises to continue Trolltech's current Open Source strategy. Trolltech's developments will continue to be released under commercial and Open Source licenses in future, according to the press release. Qt is available both under the GNU General Public License (GPL), and under a commercial license which is only needed to develop products that are not placed under a free license themselves. Nokia hopes to achieve faster development cycles and increase the competitiveness of its S60 and Series 40 devices through the acquisition of the Open Source company says Kai Öistämö, Executive Vice President Devices with Nokia. "for Nokia, software plays a major role in our growth strategy for devices, PCs and the integration with the Internet", says the Nokia manager. The transaction is due for completion in the latter half of 2008.

Jeremy Scott
Travel bag
Set off with a spring in your step with this large-size travel bag in the Le Pliage style.
Does this graphic print remind you of something? Remember, it was a time when the colour bar test card used to appear every so often on TV sets. Well, Jeremy Scott has turned it into a print that he has brought up to date for Spring 2014. With its cotton canvas trimmed in black cowhide, this bag christened the "Color Bar" is the latest addition to Longchamp's partnership with Jeremy Scott. The colour bands are of course reminiscent of the ones that you used to see sometimes on television screens for calibrating and setting the channels.

Field experiences are the application side of preparation for teacher certification. Teacher candidates advance through three levels of field experiences, each becoming more intense. Field experiences provide actual settings in which to develop and demonstrate the knowledge, skills and dispositions necessary to help all students learn.
"All" implies the possibility of diverse learning needs. Such needs may surface with (a) students having exceptionalities; (b) students from varying geographical areas, ethnicities, races, religions or socioeconomic strata; or (c) students with gender, sexual orientation and linguistic differences. Shippensburg University Standards for Those Preparing to Teach, Lead, or Counsel in Public Schools includes the following expected outcomes:
Field experiences, too, are diverse. Interaction with students in a variety of settings helps teacher candidates confront issues of diversity that affect teaching and student learning. Strengthening teacher effectiveness in all contexts and with all students is the intended outcome.

GAINESVILLE (AP) -- The Olympics dreams for dozens of Canadian athletes are being decided in a north Georgia lake.
The Lake Lanier Olympic Center recently hosted canoe and kayaking Olympic trials for Canada ahead of the summer games in London.
About 75 Canadian paddlers competed on Lake Lanier on Friday through Sunday.
The rowing venue at the lake hosted Olympic events in 1996 and the 2003 Sprint Canoe/Kayak World Championships.
The site will draw canoe and kayak athletes from across the U.S. later this month when it hosts the 2012 U.S. Marathon Team Trials. While not associated with the Olympics, this event is the qualifier to represent the U.S. at the Marathon World Championships in Rome, Italy.

In Part 1 of the original story bible for AS THE WORLD TURNS, called AS THE EARTH TURNS at that point, some background details on the concept of the show and the locale were provided. Irna Phillips created the soap in 1955 and a pilot was shot in November of that year. AS THE WORLD TURNS debuted on April 2, 1956. In Part 2, the character of Christopher Hughes was described in detail. In Part 3 below, find out more about Chris, his family and career.
Six months after Chris had become a law clerk in the firm of Lowell and Barnes, Nancy became pregnant. Then came the lean years, for Chris and Nancy in the city living on the meager salary of a junior law clerk, and for his family on the farm caught without savings in the crop failures of the dustbowl.
Chris' brother, John, at seventeen, left the farm to join the navy. Chris' father, mother and Edith tried to weather thru the bad times on the farm. Five years ago Chris' mother died and Edith, feeling no longer tied to the land, left for the city to find a life of her own. For the past five years Fred Hughes has tried to run the farm alone, and with Chris' financial help has been managing to get by.
There seems to be every reason for Chris to feel that he's had a rich, full and successful life so far. He'd be the first to tell you that he has everything a man could want. Nancy and his three children make up his world, his house in the suburbs, but a man lives in another world too, in a world of his work, his professions, and somewhere along the way Chris feels something went wrong. Chris had always wanted to be a famous criminal lawyer. But the years with Lowell, Barnes and Lowell had never given him the opportunity to pursue that branch of the law.
Nor had the years brought to him a junior partnership in the firm as he had hoped it would. As far as the criminal law was concerned, he was forced to take a second place to the senior member of the firm who fancied himself as the great trial lawyer. As far as the partnership was concerned he had to take a second place to Jim Lowell who became a partner several years ago.
Nancy is well aware of her husband's frustration in his work. Many times she blamed herself for it. The responsibilities of a married man kept him tied to this large organization, responsibilities which kept him from saying, "I have served my apprenticeship, now I will open my own office and go my own way."
Today life has gone full circle and there is Kit's college education to consider. Penny, altho still in her formative years, has a future too that must not be overlooked. Kenny - well, he's only a youngster, but his physical needs must be met.
There had been another child, Susan, who was killed in an accident six months ago.
Nancy knows Chris' problem. Often she had begged him to leave Lowell, Barnes and Lowell and go out on his own, but perhaps men are less daring than women, or perhaps it is fear of consequences, or is it a state of being over forty that makes uprooting difficult. And so Chris has stayed on, hoping that things would change.
EDITOR'S NOTE: The names of Chris and Nancy's children are changed later in the document. Up next, the original vision for Nancy Hughes.

that is extraordinary! - as a huge fan of soap history these are so exciting to read - I would love to read the Another World bible and try to see how it was revised for AMC.ReplyDelete
Great stuff!! Thanks for posting it! And a big Thank You to Martha Byrne!ReplyDelete
As someone in the process of creating an online soap that revolves around a tight knit community, two best friends and their families and friends, I find this to be an invaluable tool and resource.ReplyDelete

Brian O'Doherty, winner of the 2012 Clark Prize. Photo © Fionn McCann Photography
The Clark Prize 2012

6:00 pm
Purchase tickets online
The Clark Prize for Excellence in Arts Writing celebrates insightful and accessible prose that advances the public understanding and appreciation of the visual arts. The recipient of the 2012 prize is artist, writer, and critic Brian O'Doherty.
The award will be presented on November 16 at The Explorers Club, 46 East 70th Street, New York, New York.
A man of many parts, O'Doherty's most durable identity has been both as artist and writer. He joined the New York Times as an art critic in 1961, was the editor of Art in America from 1971 to 1974, and has published many critical essays and several books, including Object and Idea, American Masters: the Voice and the Myth; the influential Inside the White Cube: Ideologies of the Gallery Space; and Studio and Cube.
In addition to these achievements, O'Doherty has served as director of both the visual arts and film and media programs at the National Endowment for the Arts; taught film and art criticism at Barnard College and Long Island University; and has written two works of fiction, The Strange Case of Mademoiselle P. and The Deposition of Father McGreevy, which was nominated for the Booker Prize in 2000. He received the College Art Association's Mather Award for art criticism in 1965 and was a visiting scholar at the Getty Research Institute in 2009–2010.
As an artist, O'Doherty has exhibited at Documenta and the Venice Biennale and shown widely in Europe and America. He has had several retrospectives, most recently at New York University's Grey Gallery in 2007. In 2012, the Galerie Thomas Fischer in Berlin hosted his most recent exhibition, where he was a guest of the Kulturstiftung des Bundes. Frequently intrigued by issues of identity, O'Doherty began signing his work under the name Patrick Ireland as a response to the "Bloody Sunday" killings in his native Ireland in 1972. He maintained the pseudonym for 36 years until formally burying the identity after Northern Ireland established an all-party government in 2008.
Recipients of the Clark Prize are distinguished for critical or historical writing that conveys complex ideas in a manner that is grounded in scholarship yet appealing to a diverse range of audiences. Previous honorees include Hal Foster, Peter Schjeldahl, Kobena Mercer, Linda Nochlin, and Calvin Tompkins.
The Clark Prize is funded by the Beinecke family through the Prospect Hill Foundation.

Sparks City Council members Julia Ratti (Ward 1), Ron Smith (Ward 3), Ron Schmitt (Ward 5) and City Attorney Chet Adams were appointed to four more years in office while Municipal Court Judge Jim Spoo was elected to six more years.
Because the offices of the City of Sparks are Nonpartisan, the candidates did not appear on the General Election ballot due to lack of opponents. According to Councilman Schmitt, it saved the city more than $60,000 by not participating with the county election and "one opposition would have changed all that."
"I think (running unopposed) is an affirmation, not just for myself but also for the big picture, the City of Sparks has done very appropriate things over the last four years," Schmitt said. "We have done very positive things and we have maintained a positive budget and taken all the necessary steps no matter how difficult they have been. They have been controversial and not everybody is happy, but the bottom line is the city is in very good shape right now."
Schmitt said he enjoyed his summer after winning in June and was glad to not be out campaigning for the general election. Councilman Smith said he gladly accepted the unopposed road rather than having to "run the race scared."
"I really enjoy what I do and I think the city works very well together, and all of us running unopposed is an indication of that," Smith said. "We are involved in everything and we are involved in the city with our families. I think the people know that we answer our emails. We get back to them and we want to hear from them."
As Ward 3 councilman since 2006, Smith serves as chairman of the Regional Transportation Commission, Sparks Redevelopment Agency and the city's Flood Control Project. He is the vice chair of the city's Tourism and Marketing Committee and has served on the Vistas Homeowners Association, the D'Andrea Homeowners Association and the High Sierra Industries board of directors.
Councilman Schmitt was elected to Ward 5 in 2001 and is a past president of the Nevada League of Cities and Municipalities. Currently, Schmitt sits on boards for the Reno-Sparks Chamber of Commerce, the Washoe County Human Services Consortium, the Local Emergency Planning Committee and the Information Technology Steering Committee.
"My whole issue is looking at the future. I want to look 10 years down the road and what we do with our budget today is going to affect 10 years from now," Schmitt said. "I am going to continue that. It has been my position from Day One. I am always looking at the budget and doing advanced planning and, no matter how hard it hurts today, I want to do those types of things."
Councilwoman Julia Ratti was elected to Ward 1 in 2008 and is the President and CEO of Girl Scouts of the Sierra Nevada. Ratti has worked with several non-profit organizations in the area and holds a Master's Degree from the University of San Francisco and a Bachelor's Degree from the University of Nevada, Reno. She currently sits on the Ready for Life Advisory Committee, the Parks and Recreation Commission, the Sparks Tourism Facilities and Revitalization Steering Committee and the Washoe County District Board of Health.
As the re-elected council members begin another four years on the Sparks City Council, Schmitt and Smith agreed that not every decision made by the council is supported by all members. Even in disagreement, both council members said the focus will always be for the good of the city.
"Even when we disagree with each other, we have been able to move the city in the appropriate direction. We have been able to stay out of the negative aspects and only stick with the positive," Schmitt said. "When I came to office in 2001 we had an ending fund balance of $300,000. Today that number is in the $7 million range. We have cash to do so many things and we can operate as a business."
Smith agreed saying disagreeing leads to discussion ultimately benefitting the public when policy decisions are made.
"We have spirited conversations and that is always going to lead to disagreements," Smith said. "I think disagreeing is healthy for us and at the end of the road you have a better project because of it. As a board, we have an understanding that you may disagree on many things, but once the votes have been cast we support each other for the betterment of the city."

EVANS CITY, Pa.—Police are seeking a missing rifle that may have been used to kill a western Pennsylvania man at his truck repair shop.
The Butler Eagle ( http://bit.ly/UZ2J9G) reports that Robert C. "Bob" Gaurrich was found dead late Friday night at his Evans City shop. That's about 25 miles north of Pittsburgh.
State police say they're looking for a .30-30 rifle that Gaurrich kept at the shop. No one has been charged with the shooting.
Butler County Deputy Coroner Larry Barr says an autopsy determined Gaurrich died of a single gunshot wound to the upper chest. The autopsy ruled the death a homicide.
Police recovered a .30-30 caliber shell casing near a door to the garage. They suspect Gaurrich may have known his killer because the shop was not burglarized.

This program is designed to educate leaders in applying software and computing technologies to create innovative solutions for the biotechnology, pharmaceutical and health care industries. Students learn to plan, design, build and deliver innovative solutions for these industries utilizing data mining, information retrieval, machine learning, machine translation, computational linguistics, and computational biology technologies. As these industries are rapidly evolving, there is a great need for leaders who can envision, design, plan and deliver solutions that integrate emerging technologies into effective business solutions.
The Carnegie Mellon Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship (CIE), established in fall 2012, builds on the strengths of Project Olympus and the Don Jones Center for Entrepreneurship in order to advance university research and ideas. The center works with our colleagues to create meaningful and lasting contributions to Carnegie Mellon's entrepreneurial mission, contributions that enhance the innovation ecosystem throughout the campuses, within western Pennsylvania, and beyond. The CIE assists faculty, student, staff, and alumni across the entire community in exploring the commercial potential of their innovations.
The Center for Technology Transfer and Enterprise Creation (CTTEC) is responsible for facilitating and accelerating the movement of research and technology out of the university and into the marketplace. Our collaborative and problem-solving approach working with researchers to validate, challenge and extend their work fits well within the overall goals of commercialization.

CyLab's goal is to build mutually-beneficial public-private partnerships to develop new technologies for measurable, available, secure, trustworthy, and sustainable computing and communications systems and to educate individuals at all levels. CyLab provides technology resources and expertise in technology transfer to and from the public and private sectors.
Carnegie Mellon University invites engineering and other technical professionals to earn a one-year, interdisciplinary MS degree in Engineering and Technology Innovation Management (E&TIM). From nanotechnology to critical infrastructure, biomedical engineering to the environment, energy to information technology, today's opportunities and challenges have both technical and management dimensions. The E&TIM program equips students for meaningful careers as leaders in innovation and the strategic management of technology.
The Entertainment Technology Center (ETC) at Carnegie Mellon University offers a two-year Masters of Entertainment Technology degree, jointly conferred by Carnegie Mellon University's College of Fine Arts and School of Computer Science. Carnegie Mellon is relatively unique among US universities in being able to offer this kind of degree, as we have both top-quality fine arts and top-quality technology programs.
The concept is to have technologists and fine artists work together on projects that produce artifacts that are intended to entertain, inform, inspire, or otherwise affect an audience/guest/player/participant. Because the larger challenge we face in authoring in new media is bringing together different disciplines, our degree program is driven by trying to do this most effectively.
Established in 2006, Carnegie Mellon's Institute for Social Innovation (ISI), housed at H. John Heinz III College, is a multi-disciplinary institute designed to help advance innovation, entrepreneurship and sustainability in solving some of the world's most critical public interest problems.
The OFEF at Carnegie Mellon University is a new, groundbreaking model for providing early-stage business financing to Carnegie Mellon alumni who have graduated within the past five years. The OFEF is not a business plan competition, in which only entrepreneurs with the best ideas receive funding. Instead, it's open to recent CMU graduates who have the desire to become entrepreneurs and contribute to the university's innovation ecosystem.
Project Olympus at Carnegie Mellon University bridges the gap between world-class university research and economy-promoting commercialization. Olympus builds an infrastructure and fosters a culture that will enable talent and ideas to grow in the region by:
- Injecting an entrepreneurial culture into the university's technology commercialization initiatives.
- Helping students and faculty explore the commercial potential of their research and ideas.
- Developing collaborations that exploit the expertise and resources of academia and the innovation development sector.

In addition to R&D, educational programs, commercialization initiatives and unique partnership opportunities are offered. The Center is jointly run by Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Pittsburgh.
The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University was established in 1979 to conduct basic and applied research in robotics technologies relevant to industrial and societal tasks. Seeking to combine the practical and the theoretical, the Robotics Institute has diversified its efforts and approaches to robotics science while retaining its original goal of realizing the potential of the robotics field.

This course serves as the capstone course to a graduate student's entrepreneurial studies at Carnegie Mellon University.

FDIC Consumer News - Winter 1996/1997
|Fraud from Abroad
We all
learned over the years to safeguard our money when shopping, traveling or investing
abroad. But more and more, you can lose money to a con artist in Africa, the Caribbean, or
anywhere else in the world, without leaving your home or office.
A few years ago the Internet was an exotic and remote source of information. Today it is a new channel for some of the tried-and-true scams of old. The National Consumers League in Washington says the Pyramid or Ponzi Schemes-in which you are promised high returns on your investment, but the money goes only to those who invested before you-are at the top of its list of the five most common scams found on the world-wide information highway.
Sweepstakes are now the number one fraud being operated from Canada, says Michael Hartman, a U.S. Postal Inspector in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. You may be told you've won a $25,000 prize, but first, you must pay $2,000 in "taxes" or fees. The victims get no prize of any value. If anything is received it is worth less than the "reimbursement fee."
The mail and the phone can also bring investment scams into your
home, including such popular ones as higher interest rates or tax shelters in a foreign
bank. Check these out carefully before sending any money. Many unlicensed "phantom
banks" use names that are very similar to the names of some of the largest banks in
the world. And in some of the scams they even claim to have FDIC deposit insurance. In
reality, they are none of these things. To see if a bank is FDIC-insured, look in a
directory of financial institutions at a library, contact a local bank for assistance, or
ask the FDIC's Division of Compliance and Consumer Affairs (listed on Page 11). Call the
Internal Revenue Service if the claim is that you can shelter your money from taxation by
depositing it abroad. Also check with your state banking department to see if they have a
banking license, because a business license isn't enough to legally carry on banking
activities in the U.S. In another investment scam, some victims bought overpriced
semi-precious gemstones as a hedge against inflation. Now they are being told by con
artists in Canada who sold them the stones originally that if they invest in just another
stone or two to complete the collection, it will be purchased by a group of overseas
collectors. But there are never collectors. It is another ploy to get the victims to buy
more stones that are worth less than 10 percent of the claimed value.
Third, prosecution can be tough. Take the case of unlicensed banking
operations-most of which operate
Tips on how to handle such callers.
Don't hesitate to call the police or sheriff's department. Chances are if you are being approached, so are others in your community.
Think about what is being offered. As Postal Inspector Hartman says of the sweepstakes and gem scams: "Does it make sense to have to pay money to collect a prize? Does it make sense to buy another stone to sell yours?"
If you think a call, fax or a letter is a scam, contact the National
Fraud Information Center at 800-876-7060. You will talk to a trained person who has heard
it all before. If you wish, they will report the situation to law enforcement agencies.
But the information will be kept confidential.

I don't get it. I've always used PwnageTool until now, but I never installed Cydia or Installer. All I needed was Jailbreaking (access to root directory). So QuickPwn seemed perfect for me. Except that I just discovered that QuickPwn installed both Cydia and Installer without my permission. So basically I need a custom firmware in order to avoid them. Please give the user the ability not to install Cydia and Installer!
Can I just delete them via DiskAid or do I have to restore a custom firmware to get back to "purity"?

2008 Caldecott Medal Winner
Orphan, Clock keeper, and thief, Hugo lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station, where his survival depends on secrets and anonymity. But when his world suddenly interlocks with an eccentric, bookish girl and a bitter old man who runs a toy booth in the station, Hugo's undercover life, and his most precious secret, are put in jeopardy. A cryptic drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message from Hugo's dead father form the backbone of this intricate, tender, and spellbinding mystery.

My 87 year old mother-in-law has taken Epicor regulary this winter- and she was the only one in the family who didn't come down with the flu (even though she was exposed and hadn't taken flu shots.

I believe Epicor works. It does not cure.....e.g., colds, flu, but if I am on a regular regimen, it keeps me from getting sick.

After reading much about Epicor, I decided to take it on a regular basis. I'm happy to report that it completely agrees with my system. Having a sensitivity to many supplements I take, this is a BIG plus. Am anticipating no more colds and/or flu.
Excellent Product

I don't think there is a tremendous amount of difference amongst Epicor supplements. This one is priced well and has kept me well during the wintertime.

Neurosurgery Residency Program
Program director: Michael Oh, MD
Assistant program director: Khaled Aziz, MD
Accreditation: ACGME
Program length: 7 years (PGY1-PGY7)
Residents per year: 1-2
Contact us
About the Program
The Neurosurgery Residency Program focuses on excellence in patient care, excellence in education, and excellence in research. These goals have been integrated into the neurosurgical training program through a combination of the following:
- Intensive faculty/resident interaction
- Graded/supervised patient care and operative responsibilities
- Emphasis on the delivery of outpatient care and development of respect for the economic impact of neurosurgical practice
- Comprehensive neurosciences didactic curriculum
- Encouragement of intellectual development grounded in the scientific method
- Basic and clinical neurosciences research
The Neurosurgery Residency Program spans 7 years following medical school and involves training in clinical neurosurgery, the allied neurosciences, and neuroscience research. The primary objective is an ever-increasing level of knowledge, responsibility, and technical expertise so as to allow independent neurosurgical practice in an academic or private setting.
Our application process is handled through ERAS/NRMP. Once the application is submitted to our neurosurgery residency program, the applicant will be contacted regarding a possible interview. All correspondence is handled through the ERAS post office.
Our full-time faculty includes 14 active neurosurgeons with subspecialty clinical and research interests in spine/spinal instrumentation, neurotrauma, neuro-oncology, vascular surgery, skull-base surgery, disorders of the cranial nerve, epilepsy and interventional neuroradiology. In addition, there are adjunct faculty in neurology, neuropathology, neuroradiology, neuro-otology, neurophysiology and neuroscience research.
One residency position is available for each of the seven years of the program. Resident rotations include:
- Surgical / Critical Care (9 months)
- Clinical Neurosurgery /Pediatric Neurosurgery (48 months total, 12 months as Chief Resident)
- Pediatric Neurosurgery (4 months)
- Neurology (3 months)
- Neuroradiology / Neuro-ophthalmology / Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) (6 months)
- Neuropathology (2 months)
- Advanced clinical training / research (12 months)
Because a significant component of neurosurgical care is provided on an outpatient basis, neurosurgery residents also assume an integral role in the clinical and outpatient office setting. In the clinic, residents see patients, diagnose conditions, plan diagnostic testing, discuss treatment options and follow-up, arrange preoperative consultations, and follow the patients postoperatively with direct oversight from neurosurgical faculty. In most cases, follow-up includes rehabilitation settings as well. Residents are required to participate in the approximately 10,000 neurosurgical outpatient visits that occur each year.
Residents are also expected to participate in regular conferences of the department and in the department's external conferences sponsored the Continuing Medical Education Department, such as the annual Spine Summit and Skull Base Surgery conferences.

Creamy Spring Vegetable Gratin with Grana Padano
Cookbook Recipe
This simplicity and plainness means that a scoop of these baked vegetables would be perfect with a roasted chicken, or a rich dish of pasta. Serve it drizzled with chicken or meat juices, or just eat it plain, with a glass of white wine and an extra sprinkle of crunchy kosher salt and fresh black pepper.
• Reprinted from Not Your Mother's Casseroles by Faith Durand. (Harvard Common Press, January 2011)
CASSEROLE DISH: 9 x 13-inch baking dish
BAKE TIME: 1 hour
2 small fennel bulbs, trimmed
2 large leeks
2 large russet potatoes (between 3/4 and 1 pound), peeled
1 large onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup grated Grana Padano cheese
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly grease the baking dish with olive oil.
2. Using a mandoline or very sharp knife, cut the fennel bulb into thin slices. (Note: I aim for about 1/8-inch thick slices. A mandoline or food processor is almost mandatory for this.) Cut each leek in half lengthwise and rinse to remove any grit; pat dry. Slice the leek halves into 1-inch-wide half moons and separate each layer. Slice the potatoes as thin as the fennel (just use the same setting on the mandoline or food processor), and toss all these vegetables into your largest bowl with the onion and garlic.
3. Stir in the sour cream, salt, nutmeg, pepper, and cheese. (The mixture will be thick and just barely covered with the cheese and sour cream.) Scrape into the prepared baking dish and cover tightly with foil. (This amount of vegetabes will pack the baking dish very full — but after baking it the volume will go down considerably.) Bake for 45 minutes, then remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes to let the top brown. Let stand for 10 minutes, then serve hot in big scoops.
Recipe Notes:
• I like to add some fresh herbs to this as well, if they are on hand. Some snippets of the fennel fronds are nice, or a few snipped sorrel leaves. I also like to garnish the top of the gratin with more of the feathery fennel fronds when serving.
• If you can't find Grana Padano (here's a primer on this cheese) use another hard, salty cheese like Parmesan or aged Asiago.
• On the sour cream: I have only made this with full-fat sour cream. I would not recommend using lower-fat sour cream, but you're welcome to try. There's only 1 cup in this entire casserole, so I think using a higher-fat product is better here.

This looks wonderful. I've really enjoyed the recipes from this book. I purchased my copy at Costco in paperback and there aren't any photos (not sure if the hardback has pictures)to accompany the recipes so its difficult to decipher how a finished dish looks. Thanks again for such a great resource.
@rosebud oh thank you! Yeah, there aren't any photos in the book, sadly - I had this ambitious plan of photographing the whole book and blogging through it later, but it was a little much. I'll keep adding photos here and eventually elsewhere, when I can.
I made this this weekend, thanks for the terrific recipe! I love casseroles, but they're usually so rich. This was nice and light. I'm sure it was delicious as written, though I added some cooked, crumbled italian sausage to the mix to make it more of a main dish. Yum!
